There is Jane Fonda, dutiful trophy wife (now ex) of media mogul Ted Turner. There is Fonda the spandex-clad gym bunny whose aerobics obsession helped herald a ﬁtness revolution. There is Fonda the bikini-clad bombshell who broke hearts as Barbarella. Each one may be enticing, but for this, the America issue, the only Fonda who could ﬁt the bill was Hanoi Jane. The actress earned the unbecoming nickname in the early ’70s when she visited North Vietnam on a mission to prove that the U.S. had been deliberately trying to unravel the country’s dike system. It was on that trip that she was famously photographed atop a foreign anti-aircraft battery— something she has since expressed deep regret over— and which led critics to label her as grossly unpatriotic. But Fonda’s intentions were honorable. She had been involved since 1970 with the FTA (Free the Army), alongside actors Fred Gardner and Donald Sutherland, a tour designed to counteract Bob Hope’s USO effort; she raised money for the VVAW (Vietnam Veterans Against the War); and she enraged the Nixon administration by speaking publicly about U.S. troops utilizing torture. Though Fonda’s vocal anti-war efforts made many nervous to hire her—“I can’t say I was blacklisted, but I was greylisted,” she has said—it never shut her up. She has always been proud to call herself a liberal and a feminist, and in recent years has, besides protesting the Iraq War, become involved with V-Day to stop violence against women and founded the Jane Fonda Center for Reproductive Health at Emory University. Fonda is a rebel with a cause, a true anomaly in modern day Hollywood. http://www.kiehls-usa.com
